Our Story
Empower Method was founded in 2024 by jennifer
taylor after more than a decade in the Pilates industry.
Over the years, Jennifer developed a unique approach
to Pilates focused on delivering a full-body workout
that feels energizing, engaging, and fun. what began as
a desire to share this method with other instructors
led to the creation of the Empower Method teacher
training program.
as the training program grew, it became clear there
was also a need for a physical space to connect
directly with a community. empower Method Studio was
created to bring people together through movement,
offering an uplifting, high-energy environment where
clients can experience the Empower Method in a way
that feels both accessible and challenging. The studio
is built around the belief that movement should be
effective, empowering, and something you genuinely
look forward to.
After a life-changing injury led her to Pilates, Jennifer found
more than just recovery … she found strength and purpose.
driven by a love for movement and a desire to create
something more, jennifer created a space where people can
fall in love with movement, feel truly empowered, and build
real community; while also supporting instructors as they
grow into confident teachers.
With a deep love for movement and years of experience
training both clients and instructors, Jennifer is dedicated
to empowering the next generation of fitness professionals
through education, mentorship, and real-world support.
Empower Method is more than her creation. it’s her calling.
